An aphid predator, Chrysopa pallens Ramber, was reared on the artificial diets containing chicken egg yolk, yeast hydrolysate, brewer's yeast or Vanderzant's vitamin mixture, sucrose andlor bee honey, casein hydrolysate, and cholesterol. On these diets, 20.0 to 70.0% of the 1st instar larvae developed to apparently normal adults depending on diets used. The adults fed on one of these diets which was the most effective laid 230 fertile eggs for her 36 days of adult life span. The nonlipid part of the aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer was thought to be nutritionally more important than the lipid part for the development of the green lacewing.

A 16-week feeding trial was conducted to determine the amount of fish meal analogue (FMA) that can be replacing white fish meal (WFM) protein in Korean rockfish. Five experimental diets were formulated on isonitrogenous and isocaloric basis of $50\%$ crude protein and 15.6 KJ/g diet. The graded level of replacement of PM by Em on the basis of crude protein were as follows : Diet 1($100\%$ WFM), Diet 2($87.5\%$ WFM : $12.5\%$ FMA), Diet 3 ($75\%$ WFM : $25\%$ FMA), Diet 4($75\%$ WFM : $25\%$ FMA+2 EAAs), Diet 5 ($50\%$ WFM : $50\%$ FMA+2 EAAs). Methionine and Iysine were selected for 2 essential amino acids (EAA) to study the effect of adding EAA to the diets 4 and 5. Weight gain (WG), feed fed efficiency (FE) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) of fish fed diet 3, 4 and 5 were significantly lower (P< 0.05) than those of fish fed the control ($100\%$ WFM),while that of fish fed diet 2 was not significantly different diet(P>0.05) from those of fish fed the control diet. WG, FE and PER of fish fed diet 4 were significantly higher (P<0.05) than those of fish fed diet 3, but lower than those of fish fed the control diet. Therefore, these results indicated that FMA protein could substitute WFM protein up to $12.5\%$ without 2 EAAs supplementation in Korean rockfish. And, dietary supplementation of 2 EAAs could be benetficial when FMA is utilized as a fish meal replacer in juvenile Korean rockfish.

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of HACCP implementation on the medicine use, antibiotic utilization in each feeding stage and productivity of large scale swine farms (over 5,000 pigs) in Korea. Data were collected from ten swine farms before and after implementation of a HACCP system. Total number of piglets, number of initial weaning piglets, number of weaning piglets, survival rate of piglets, date of weaning piglets, number of piglets per sow per year and price for medicine used per month on HACCP implemented swine farms had a tendency to increase without any significant difference. However, parturition rate, market pig per sow per year, number of antibiotic used and farm number of feeds containing antibiotics at fattening stage added at the swine farm were significantly increased after HACCP implementation (p<0.05). Due to increase in the feed cost recently, production cost for shipment in HACCP system implemented swine farms had increased in this study. In conclusion, our results indicated that the implementation of HACCP system might have many effects including reduction of medical expenses and improvement of productivity of the pig farms.

A total of 216 day-old broiler chickens were randomly assigned to 6 treatment combined 2 dietary protein regimens (22-20%, 20-18% for starter and finisher, respectively) with 3 times of change (2, 4, 6 weeks) to study the effects of different protein levels and time of change from starter to finisher ration on the performance of broilers. Increasing the dietary protein level resulted in not only a significant increase in the body weight gain and the protein requirement per kg body weight gain, but also an improvement of feed efficiency. However abdominal fat accumulation was decreased by adding incremental levels of protein. On the other hand, the earlier time of change from starter to finisher ration, less\ulcorner\ulcornerbody weight gain and the abdominal fat accumulation. But feed intake and viability were not affected by the dietary protein level and/or the time of change from starter to finisher ration. Income was highest for birds fed 22% and 20% protein diet' starter and finisher, respectively changed from starter to finisher at 4weeks of age.

This study was conducted to evaluate extruded pellet for the growth of grower Korean rockfish Sebastes schlegeli. Two replicate groups of 150 fish per each tank(initial mean weight 112 g) were fed one of four experimental extruded pellets for 8 months. Survival was 100% in all groups. Final mean weight, feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio, feed intake and hepatosomatic index were not significantly different among all groups. Proximate compositions of the whole body and liver were not significantly different among all groups. It can be concluded that the dietary formulation used in four extruded pellets could be applied in the practical extruded pellet for grower Korean rockfish.

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of feeding split diets for a.m. and p.m. in laying hens on egg shell qualities, and to study the relationship among the methods of measuring shell quality with 480 ISA Brown layers during 32∼36, 52∼56 and 72∼76 wk of age, respectively. A total of 1,080 eggs were collected from 6 treatment groups in every laying period and weighed individually. Egg specific gravity, egg breaking strength, shell thickness and shell percentage of eggs were measured, and then correlation coefficients (r) and regression equations were calculated. By feeding the split diets for a.m. and p.m. differing in ME, CP, and Ca levels, and as the Ca level of the p. m. diet increased, eggshell qualities were improved(P<0.05). The correlation coefficient values indicate that shell percentage, shell thickness and egg specific gravity are highly correlated with the egg breaking strength(P<0.01).

Living modified (LM) crops are imported each year to South Korea as food and feeds, LM canola being one of the imported crops. The cultivation of LM crops is not permitted in South Korea but the import of these crops is increasing. In this study, we surveyed the environmental risk of imported LM canola at 9 provinces, from March 2009 to June 2013. Monitoring of canola was conducted around feed factories, roadsides, harbors, farmhouses, and flower festival regions. From the total of 595 canola samples collected from 1850 monitoring sites, we identified 6 LM canola samples. The LM canola samples were subjected to protein and DNA based analysis. PCR analyses using approved 5 single event primers (T45, MS8, RT73, Rf3 and Topas 19-2) revealed that two crops were glyphosate-resistant LM canolas, and four were glufosinate-resistant LM canolas. This study suggested that environmental monitoring is a useful research tool to manage LM crops unintentionally introduced into the environment in South Korea. This result can be used as a basis for future post-management of canola crops.

This experiment was conducted to study the most economical and effective dietary protein level and feeding regimes in the performance of broilers. Four kinds of dietary protein level (25, 23, 20 and 18%) were prepared for this experiment. This experiment was carried on for 7 weeks and the results were shown as follows; 1. Increasing the dietary protein level resulted in a significant increase in the body weight gains (P〈0.05). 2. With a higher level of the dietary protein, the feed intake tended to be increased and the feed efficiency had same trends. 3. Increasing the dietary protein level resulted in a significant increase in the protein requirement per kg body weight gains (P〈0.05). 4. Viabilities were not affected by the different dietary protein levels. 5. The highest income had attained in the highest level of protein supplement, and the middle level of protein supplement was not higher than the lowest one. Conclusively, the highest level of protein supplement was considered to be adequate for the broiler's productiveity and income.

한국산 도룡농, Hvnobius leechii의 7개 집단에서 mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA)의 변이가 조사되었다. MtDNA의 크기에서의 차이는 관찰되지 않았으나 제한효소 인식 부위에서의 차이가 조사되었다. MtDNA의 절편 양상은 각 집단에서 동일하게 나타났다. 제한 효소로 처리하여 얻어진 절편의 비교에서 종내 변이는 염기 치환에 의하여 발생한 것임이 분석되어졌다. 특히 하동과 제주 집단은 몇개의 제한 효소 인식 위치에서 나머지 5개 집단과 뚜렷한 차이를 보였다. 염기치환율(p값)은 공통 절편 비율(p값)을 토대로 하여 얻어졌으며 그 값은 0.004에서 0.064의 범위 내의 값으로 측정되었다. 하동과 제주 집단을 제외한 5개 집단의 비교에서는 비교적 낮은 침의 염기 치환율을 보였으나 제주와 나머지 집단들과의 비교에서는 염기치환율이 높게 측정되었다. 염기 치환율과 관련지어 염기 분화 연대를 측정한 결과 도룡뇽 7개 집단은 3개의 group으로 나뉘어 졌으며 이들은 약 188만년전에 분화된 것으로 사료되어 진다.
